MOS codes are always changing. As one example, current Army 91A is Medical Corpsman, 92B is Medical NCO. However, back in the Vietnam days, 91B was Medical Specialist / Combat Medic, and 92B was Medical Lab Specialist.
Consequently, RallyPoint's current MOS listings do not allow members (old vets) to select historically correct MOS.
Yea - this cross-referencing could be insane, but ultimately more accurate.
And from RallyPoint's business perspective, that could mean more "big data", and higher value.
I'm sure there 1,000 other little changes to MOS definitions over the past 3 to 4 decades.
Just a thought.

Absolutely. When I first joined I was a 35K - Avionic Mechanic. I then moved into 98J - EW/SIGINT Interceptor and 35K became my secondary MOS. While I was still serving 35K changed to 67N and is now 15N. Meanwhile 98J has become 35S - really close to my original MOS of 35K which now doesn't exist at all. It's enough to make my head hurt!
